Forgetting to change the windshield washer fluid will not damage the car. You can add hot water to the washer fluid reservoir to slowly melt the existing fluid, then use it up and replace it with antifreeze windshield washer fluid. Selection of windshield washer fluid: Different seasons and climates require different types of windshield washer fluid. The choice mainly depends on temperature. For example, in winter, you need to use antifreeze washer fluid as regular fluid can easily freeze in cold weather. In summer, especially in southern regions where there are more insects, it's advisable to use washer fluid with insect repellent properties. Volume of windshield washer fluid: Windshield washer fluids generally come in standard volumes, which vary by brand. When purchasing washer fluid, pay attention to these details. If you need to switch brands, make sure to check the volume specifications first.

Why Are Tires Not Solid

Tires are not solid for the following reasons: 1. Comfort: Radial tires have excellent anti-jolting properties, relying not on the rubber's own elasticity but on the good rebound force between rubber molecules, which provides extensibility. Solid tires have poor comfort, as cars cannot rely solely on the rubber's own elasticity to cushion road bumps. 2. Cost: The cost of a solid tire is much higher than that of a radial tire, making it too expensive. 3. Impact on speed: Solid tires cannot operate at high speeds due to their excessive rebound force, significant weight, and the friction with the ground, all of which greatly affect vehicle speed.

What Does It Mean When a Vehicle Is in Standby Mode?

When a car engine is in standby mode, it means the engine is running but the vehicle is not moving, which is referred to as idling. Below is an introduction to idling-related content: 1. Operation Mode: Whether the vehicle is moving or not, the engine operates in the same way. The only difference is that during idling, the clutch system disconnects the power from the transmission mechanism. In most vehicles, all cylinders are operational during idling. 2. Starting: When a car is just started, the lubrication and friction of the engine oil are in a critical state, and the normal lubrication conditions for engine operation have not yet been achieved. Therefore, when starting the car, avoid igniting and moving off immediately. Instead, preheat the lubrication oil circuit first.
